The magic number

Three stunning So Resi shared ownership developments in Wokingham now available

Wokingham is one of the UK’s best places to live based on average employment levels, earnings and long life expectancy, according to the 2017 Halifax Quality of Life Survey. However, a great quality of life can come at a price. Average current house values in the area total £510,603 – £187,934 higher than the UK average of £322,669*.

Homebuyers hoping to purchase in this popular Berkshire town will therefore be pleased to know that So Resi is offering superb new shared ownership homes at three developments across Wokingham. So Resi Kentwood, So Resi Wokingham and Hatchwood Mill are delivering homes that boast high-quality design, superior specifications and great locations – all at very accessible prices.

So Resi Kentwood is a new collection of two and three-bedroom homes with generous private gardens and allocated parking on the outskirts of Wokingham. Each property delivers comfortable living spaces, contemporary kitchens and sleek bathrooms. The homes are also great value; prices for a two-bedroom house start from £141,750 for a 35 per cent share (full market value £407,500).

The village-inspired development is ideal for young families, offering plenty of green space to play and relax. When So Resi Kentwood is complete, walking and cycle routes will weave through the development to the town centre and train station, just under two miles away, with train journeys of just nine minutes to Reading and 50 minutes to Paddington. When Crossrail opens at Reading station in 2019, passengers can travel through central London without changing trains.

So Resi Wokingham is part of the new Matthews Green Farm community, which enjoys an attractive semi-rural location on the outskirts of Wokingham. The development will incorporate a range of shops as well as a new primary school, landscaped open spaces and play areas. Due to the development’s popularity, only 11 homes remain. A 40 per cent share of a two-bedroom apartment start from £132,000 (full market price £330,000). Prices for a three-bedroom home start at £176,000 for a 40% share of the full market price of £440,000.

There is a choice of traditional two-storey houses with three bedrooms or spacious four-bedroom townhouses which are arranged over three levels. Every house has a rear and front garden as well as a car port or garage. Wokingham station is also less than two miles away and residents will enjoy being close to excellent sports facilities, including tennis courts, at Cantley Park.

Hatchwood Mill, close to the attractive village of Winnersh on the outskirts of Reading and Wokingham, is another great opportunity to get on the property ladder. The shared ownership properties comprise contemporary one and two-bedroom apartments, ideal for first-time buyers, and detached four-bedroom houses suitable for larger and growing families.
